Farough crosses mountains with his father’s corpse to honor a final wish — a journey through war, love, and memory. PHOENIX is a tale of devotion and rebirth. War — born of hatred, greed, and the selfish ideologies of politicians — places an unbearable burden on the shoulders of ordinary people; people who are forced to carry the sorrow of their lost loved ones along the harsh and rocky path of life.
This film is a tribute to peace, and to all those who live far from their homeland.
